Wow... The venue almost adds another layer to the movie. You're watching a 1982 vision of 2019, accompanied by live electronic-orchestral music, inside a theater built a couple thousand years ago...

Also Vangelis was pretty much inspired by Byzantine Greek Music which was inspired by Ancient Greek music which was played in the ancient theater 2 millennia ago.

And behind the screen on the horizon, framed in a stone arch, was the lights of the ongoing Elliniko megatower construction project, which already dwarfs every structure in the country. It was another layer onto what you described.
